Similarly what is the V6 program that is used with standard Block Icons? You can write the following example script on mouse action for Press Left and similary for Press right depending your screen resulution and required postion. int LeftPos; int TopPos; //Get left position of object LeftPos = GetLeft(lpszPictureName,lpszObjectName); TopPos = GetTop(lpszPictureName,lpszObjectName); //Set the position of the left edge of the drive status window if (LeftPos < 160) SetLeft(lpszPictureName,"PictureExampleWindow",LeftPos+30); else SetLeft(lpszPictureName,"PictureExampleWindow",LeftPos-165); //Set the position of the top edge of the drive status window if (TopPos > 516) SetTop(lpszPictureName,"PictureExampleWindow",TopPos-85); else SetTop(lpszPictureName,"PictureExampleWindow",TopPos); //open the drive status window SetPropBOOL(lpszPictureName,"PictureExampleWindow","Visible",TRUE); SetPropChar(lpszPictureName,"PictureExampleWindow","PictureName","PictureExample.pdl"); regards, rit03
